InlineBidiResolver::appendRun() will need to be fixed up, and potentially much more.

Currently, BidiResolverBase::createBidiRunsForLine() has no concept of U_RIGHT_TO_LEFT_ISOLATE. Because it doesn't appear as a case in any switch statements, the default is getting hit, which means we seem to ignore it completely (for the purposes of bidi).

These isolate characters don't force the complex text code path.

Created attachment 281247 [details] Example 2

Example 2 is explained by us not understanding how to deal with isolate characters inside BidiResolverBase::createBidiRunsForLine(). In particular, we have this general structure: UCharDirection last = ... while(true) { UCharDirection direction = u_charDirection(c); switch (direction) { case U_LEFT_TO_RIGHT: switch (last) { default: break; } case U_RIGHT_TO_LEFT: ... case U_WHITE_SPACE_NEUTRAL: default: break; } last = direction; } So, if the pattern of directions is: U_RIGHT_TO_LEFT U_WHITE_SPACE_NEUTRAL U_FIRST_STRONG_ISOLATE U_LEFT_TO_RIGHT When we hit the U_FIRST_STRONG_ISOLATE, we hit the outer default:. Then we set last = U_FIRST_STRONG_ISOLATE, and the next character is U_LEFT_TO_RIGHT, so we end up hitting the inner default:. So then we keep going, and never emit the run for the U_RIGHT_TO_LEFT parts. Compare this to what you would get if you removed the ISOLATE characters. In that case, it would work correctly because the default:s wouldn't get hit.

Can we add a regression test?

This patch broke the Windows build because we're building against ICU 6.1 on Windows, which doesn't know what any of the U_*_ISOLATE constants are.

It may be difficult to update https://developer.apple.com/opensource/internet/WebKitAuxiliaryLibrary.zip.

Even though the header file on Windows doesn't include the U_*_ISOLATE symbols, the library on Windows does correctly return the correct constants from u_charDirection().

Can you retitle this bug so that it’s clear that it’s about isolate codepoints? Embed and override codepoints had been working since KHTML.
